    The cab will be 6'' higher but to mount 35s I had to do a little trimming on the frame so I could turn all the way

    houma, la
    6" procomp,35" toyo mud terrain tires,20" rockstars,halo projecter headlights,floor board lights front and back seats, 3 10" kickers with jbl amp, jensen flip out touch screen
    i have a 6" procomp suspension and i plan on getting a body lift with in a week or 2. the only way to turn all the way is find a rim with a deep enough backspace or do what im doing which is probly getting spacers to push the tires out which will cause them to rub on the cab mounts so im getting the lift which should eliminate all rubbing

    the 3" BL wont alleviate the rubbing on the body mount, as the body will be pushed up but the mount will be in the same place. only way to keep the body mount from rubbing is to chop it back

    ThAts what I had to do to mount my 35s the only reason why I want to change my lift is Becase the body lift dosnt look right ya it's 6 in higher but from the ground to the frame is still 3 it dosnt have that rall look

    spindles FTW.... best and Healthiest way to lift a prerunner... u can get 6" of lift but i dont think u should lift it that high with a spindle due to the LCA and UCA will be angled quite a bit... J correct me if i am wrong

    Now if I do go with the 6pm supention like I was thinking of going with a solid drive line is the anything else I should look in to to improve performance of the truck after the lift

    Ok thanks procomp was the one I was thinking of from the start I looked in to it it's going to cost me more money to do spindles then it would be to do the procomp lift and with the procomp it will be 6 in and I can get rid of the spacers in the front and replace them with new shocks

    Dude. . . Body Lift or Spacer Lift are a No Go. Unless you just want it for Show. Its all Good.


    Best way is the fact you have it! You're a Prerunner.

    Get the CAMBURG Spindles = 4 inch of Love

    Get Trust Coilovers = Crank them at most 1 inch to keep an Awesome Ride

    Get Bigger Tires = 1 Inch of Lift in 33s or 35s

    Rear

    All Pro 3' Pack

    For an 5.5-6" lift with a Prerunner, you could do a whole lot better than a Procomp lift.

    Camburg Spindles (gives you 4") - 900 (TW Discount)
    Ext. Brake lines - 90
    All Pro Leaf pack - 400
    Bilstein 5100's for the front set at 1.75" - 150

    You'd be a whole lot happier with that combo rather than a Procomp Stage 1 lift kit. Save up a bit more and you'll be glad you did so in the long run.
